Lady Gaga’s already worn Hedi Slimane’s first Saint Laurent collection twice


Lady Gaga is no stranger to wearing designer wears, and it looks as though she couldn't even wait a week to try on some of Hedi Slimane’s debut creations for Saint Laurent Paris.

The designer showed his much talked about Spring 2013 collection last Monday during Paris Fashion Week, and although it’s received much flak in the industry, Lady Gaga seems to be on Team Hedi, as the first to have worn pieces from his collection literally straight off the runway.

Lady Gaga was in London on Monday to promote her new fragrance at Harrods and was seen wearing an all-black seventies-esque gypsy skirt, shirt and jacket all from Hedi Slimane’s debut collection (the hat she wore, although looking like it came from the same collection, was unfortunately not a Slimane creation). She was then seen wearing the same outfit as she dined and chatted with WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange right across the street. Bizarre.

And of course she didn’t stop at just one Hedi Slimane outfit, as photos have emerged again of Mother Monster in yet another look from the collection while in Iceland to accept an award at the Yoko Ono Grant for Peace event.

One things for sure, we can safely assume they have forged an odd sort of friendship over their mutual disdain for fashion critic Cathy Horyn. Lady Gaga has had her own feud with the writer, and retweeted Slimane’s infamous remarks towards Horyn last week (they have since been removed) while praising the designer and the work he created. We’ll have to wait and see if Lady Gaga continues to wear his collection throughout the rest of the week, and maybe Horyn herself will have something interesting to say about their new friendship.

Long Sweater Trend in Pakistan Now a Days



The sweater trend this season is gaining immense importance. A long sweater coat seems to be settling as the Pakistani winter trend and people, irrespective of their age, are inclined towards following this winter trend.

Then, if you want it a few inches below your knees, it is better not to keep the sweater trend closed i.e. should be front-open. But if you are using a full length coat, it will acquire grace once it is closed from the front.


Healthy people should prefer thin sweater trend rather than thick furs as their ultimate winter trend.

Try to keep nominal with your costs. Since many branded shops sell these sweaters for a premium price, you can choose the sweater that is not very heavy i.e. help keep you away from cold and light weight enough that they can be used in early spring as well maintaining the sweater trend for a longer period.

But developer Ritu Kumar has been declaring that she has renewed Sharmila Tagore’s 40-year-old lehenga which Kareena will use on the marriage day…
That’s not real at all. For previous times two several weeks, the employees in my device have been properly reestablishing Sharmila ji’s old marriage lehenga that Facebook will use for her nikaah on the Sixteenth. I’ve put a lot of attempt into properly reestablishing the fantastic zardosi perform. I do not know how someone else can declare to be doing it. That would not be right.

Why would Ritu Kumar declare otherwise in interviews? She has also distributed a draw of the same with the press
I cannot thoughts on that. Ritu ji is a mature developer.

               What else have you developed for Kareena around her big day?
 I am doing all of Bebo clothing, actually all of Lolo’s clothing, too (Lolo is Kareena’s sis Karisma’s nickname). For a pre-wedding operate on the Fourteenth, I have developed a garara for her, since gararas are so in nowadays. Then she will use Sharmila ji’s elegant lehenga on the Sixteenth for the deciding upon wedding, followed by another lehenga for a celebration with acquaintances at night. For her more official wedding reception in Delhi on the Eighteenth, I’ve organized an beautiful sari for her.

There is also a much higher incidence rate of delivery related morbidity and relevant disabilities with severe repercussions on mental, emotional and psychological well being of the concerned women. “The situation in our context is all the more serious as age of child bearing is under 16 years for most of our rural women,” said the speaker.

Dr Subhana said that vast majority of the causes of maternal and child morbidity and mortality are preventable or readily treatable with simple, inexpensive technologies and approaches.
“The hard-hit are the poor and the rural women and a significant number of them are not dying because of diseases we cannot treat but because society has yet to make the decision that their lives are worth saving,” she said.
